The primary goal is to familiarize participants with the OpenStack ecosystem and provide a solid foundation for further expanding and refining OpenStack clouds. The curriculum includes all necessary topics to prepare for the OpenStack Administrator certification exam. Seventy-five percent of the training is dedicated to hands-on workshops in a real OpenStack training environment.

This intensive OpenStack training delivers practical, hands-on experience in deploying, managing, troubleshooting, and optimizing private cloud environments based on OpenStack. Designed as an extended bootcamp, the course covers core administration topics, real-world troubleshooting scenarios, and advanced architectural concepts aligned with the Certified OpenStack Administrator exam objectives. With 75% workshop-based learning in a live OpenStack lab, participants build the skills needed to confidently administer and further develop enterprise OpenStack infrastructures.

This course offers an in-depth training on OpenStack networking. It begins with an introduction to OpenStack and its architecture, then clarifies the core OpenStack projects: Identity service (Keystone), Image service (Glance), Compute service (Nova), and Block storage (Cinder). This provides context for understanding the network environment within OpenStack, with a primary focus on the Networking project (Neutron). The virtual network infrastructure is described based on the Open Virtual Network project, Open vSwitch, and OpenFlow. The course goal is to help participants understand the basic operations and architecture of OpenStack, as well as familiarize them with various networking technologies behind OpenStack, including detailed information about OVN, underlying flows, resources, and tools.

Customization options

The training can be contracted for 2 days, focusing on core aspects relevant to the customer. It can also be extended regarding administrative, design, networking, and/or troubleshooting topics concerning OpenStack deployments. Other underlying SDN solutions, such as Linux Bridge or OvS, can also be covered.

This course aims to provide participants with comprehensive familiarity with the OpenStack environment, covering both operational and administrative perspectives. Following a concise introduction to cloud computing, each participant will be provisioned with a personal OpenStack instance to perform practical operational and administrative tasks. The curriculum spans all fundamental components of OpenStack, ranging from general architecture to cloud administration. The course format is structured to include approximately 90% hands-on workshops within a real OpenStack environment.

The course covers all topics required for the Certified OpenStack Administrator exam, preparing participants theoretically and practically. Additionally, the program has been expanded to include topics that help participants better understand the nuances of OpenStack necessary to successfully pass the exam. At the conclusion of the course, every participant will have the opportunity to assess their knowledge through a mock COA examination.

This instructor-led, live training in Belgrade (online or onsite) is designed for engineers, architects, and managers who wish to deploy an OpenStack cloud to manage their telecommunications infrastructure.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Plan, deploy, and administer OpenStack as a private cloud.
• Comprehend IaaS architecture and its implementation within OpenStack.
• Replace physical routers and servers with virtual machines hosted in a private cloud.
• Lower infrastructure and maintenance costs through virtualization and cloud computing.
• Accelerate the delivery of new services to customers.

The course is a comprehensive training on OpenStack. It starts with an introduction to the
system, then through hands-on workshops it provides practical knowledge on managing private
clouds based on OpenStack, and finally covers troubleshooting and advanced, architectural topics. The goal of this course is to familiarize participants with the OpenStack ecosystem as well as to
provide a strong background for further expansion and refinement of OpenStack clouds.
The course comprises all topics necessary to accomplish the Certificate OpenStack
Administrator exam.

This course is designed for IT engineers and architects seeking a solution to host private or public IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) clouds using OpenStack.
It also offers IT managers an excellent opportunity to gain a comprehensive overview of the capabilities that OpenStack can enable.

Before committing to an OpenStack implementation, investigating the topic further, or hiring a third party for implementation, attending our course allows you to weigh the pros and cons effectively.
This topic is also available as individual consultancy.

Course goal:

understand how Public Cloud differs from Private Cloud in the offering and management

gaining basic knowledge regarding OpenStack

This instructor-led, live training (available online or onsite) is designed for system administrators and infrastructure engineers who want to design, deploy, and manage private OpenStack cloud infrastructure for enterprise environments.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to understand OpenStack architecture, deploy private cloud infrastructure, manage compute and storage resources, implement security with Keystone, and apply enterprise best practices.

This course delivers hands-on expertise in OpenStack and private cloud security.
